THE LITTLE BOY KILLED AT THE MARKET

The Hussains are one of many families in mourning after Saturday's bomb attack in the city of Parachinar in north-west Pakistan.

One of the poorest in the area, the family depends on wages earned by Jamil Hussain, a labourer in Karachi, and his 15-year-old son, Sabil Hussain, who works at a poultry shop in Parachinar.
Sabil's younger brother, Altaf, 12, takes a handcart to the city's vegetable market each morning which he hires to traders who buy vegetables at auction and need to move them to their shops.
Until last Saturday, his eight-year-old brother, Zain Haider, used to go with him to the market to scavenge leftover vegetables for the family kitchen.
On Saturday, while Zain was stuffing the vegetable waste into a shopping bag, Altaf was asked by a trader to cart his merchandise and he told Zain to wait for him there.
Minutes later the bomb went off, blowing smoke, dust and bits of shattered crates and vegetables into the air.

POLLUTION IN EUROPE

Air pollution is causing around 467,000 premature deaths in Europe every year.People in urban areas are especially at risk, with around 85% exposed to fine particulate matter, at levels deemed harmful by the World Health Organization (WHO).

How big is the problem?

It's pretty bad. Within the European Union (EU), more than 430,000 people died prematurely due to pollution in 2013, the most recent year with figures available.

Most of the pollution is relised by vehicles and heating boilers.

What's the damage?

PM particles may contain smoke, dust, soot, metals, nitrates, sulphates, water and rubber from tyres.

They can get deep into your lungs, causing irritation and inflammation, and some may make it into your bloodstream.

Heart disease and lung conditions are most commonly linked to inhaling air pollution, but your liver, spleen, central nervous system, brain, and even reproductive system can also be damaged.

Is Europe worse than elsewhere?

Probably not. According to WHO data released two months ago, nine out of 10 people on the planet now breathe polluted air.

Europe is less affected by indoor air pollution, which the WHO cites as a major killer in large parts of south Asia.
